nelleke van der Maas’s Summary

I’m a 23 year old multimedia designer living in Amsterdam. I’ve started almost 3 years ago in the creative industry as a designer at MediaCatalyst where I’ve worked on projects for large international brands, small businesses and charities. I’m passionate about my job and driven to get the most out of every project. I’m able to work to tight deadlines within a team environment and understand commercial needs and requirements. Design isn’t just a job for me, its something I love to do. I count myself very lucky to make a living being creative.

I’m interested in getting connected with other creative professionals and new work opportunities.
